Is it safe to have Botox treatment if I have lupus?

Hello, thank you for your question. If your medical condition is under control and your doctor approves it. You should be able to move forward with the Botox injections.

Hi, Thanks for your question.Currently there is no evidence in literature that botulinum toxin can have some side effects in patient with Lupus or other autoimmune diseases. However your medical condition need to be stable and under control. I would recommend to seek the advice of an expert doctor in order to perform a medical consultation, review your medical history and your current medications before any treatment. Best Wishes, Dr Giuseppe Fiore

Thank you for your question. It is safe to inject Botox if you have Lupus as long your medical condition is under control.

Yes, it should be fine for you to have a Botox treatment.  Be sure to discuss all medications that you take with your injector. The results from your Botox treatment may take up to 14 days to be in full effect.
